About this project
The Republic Hotel at 416 7th Ave S in Seattle's International District is a historic unreinforced masonry building proposed for conversion to 36 units, all family-sized and entirely affordable, over retail and restaurant space. The work described across two parallel Master Use filings numbered 3042090-LU and 3042097-LU pairs a voluntary full seismic retrofit with masonry repair, restored and replaced windows, a new elevator, new roofing, and an added fifth-floor penthouse level. Systems work spans heat pumps, replumbed water lines, sprinklers, a fire alarm, and insulation across the whole exterior envelope, with the commercial spaces left as cold shell.

Nov 5, 2026 update—
The newest document is a follow-up inspection report under 1062879-VB, dated November 2026, the most recent in a run of such reports on that record through 2026. The project remains a proposal in permitting: both Master Use applications (3042090-LU and 3042097-LU) show additional information requested, as do the two construction applications carrying the same scope (7036615-CN and 7038628-CN). An initial inspection report on the same record dates to April 2026, and a hazard correction order under 1060884-VI was issued in May 2025.
